Sharing What I Have Experienced Plus General Thoughts For Brainstorming

Akka

In this post we will share a starting project to use Apache ignite data grid an event and snapshot store to mix the benefits of the event sourcing and the data grid .

The implementation is based into the Journal plugin TCK specs provided by Akka persistence.

This is mainly using Apache ignite with akka persistence to provide journal and snapshot store by using the partitioned caches and benefit from the distributed highly available data grid features plus the nice query and data computations features in Ignite that can be used to have normalized views from the event store and do analytical jobs over them despite it is advised to keep write nodes separate from read nodes for better scalability.
